Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews

Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.

When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.

Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

A place to visit again and again

Aug 2020 • friends

This is a cozy and quiet place. The music is nice and you can hear each other talking. The restaurant is vegan specific (no meat dishes) but you can find some varieties of meals with eggs and dairy products. Almost everything is made from recycled objects (from bathroom soap to plates and kitchen towels). There is free tap water included and a pets friendly place (many stray cats visit the terrance).

Good natural local food (no meat used)

Apr 2019 • none

I was invited to a birthday party and I was very surprised about taste of the food without meat. It is a totally vegetarian restaurant with a lot of clean/bio ingredients. Overall, nice atmosphere with nice stuff good prices. Sometimes, they do not have all the food which they have written in the restaurant menu. :(

One of my favorite places in Iași

Aug 2020 • solo

This restaurant was love at first sight for me: very vegan-friendly, cozy, serving delicious and filling food with fresh, local ingredients, fair trade tea & coffee, free filtered water, and hosting awesome community events. Do try their vegan burgers, sandwiches, chickpea omelette (so good!) and whatever they have on the daily menu. They also often experiment with new recipes so you may be surprised by a dish that wasn't mentioned here. It goes without saying that the team behind it is passionate about the environment and various causes. They also have a little shop in the back with sustainable items like textile bags, handmade cosmetics, and more. I made many wonderful friends and memories there, and I hope for it to be a special place for many other people as well who are either living in or just passing through Iași.

Vegetarian and vegan restaurant

Jan 2020 • none

The restaurant is very small, but cosy, and the service was very prompt. We went to this restaurant because it is the only one in Iasi with vegetarian and vegan cuisine. However, there are not many choices of food or drinks, and the portions are quite small. They only serve tap water, which has a terrible taste of chlorine. The food was good, though.

Very good vegetarian restaurant with competitive prices

Mar 2023 • friends

A really solid restaurant overall, We went there as a group of 7, and we were all very satisfied. We had soups, pasta, toasts and burgers. It’s fully vegetarian but we were not disappointed with the taste, on the contrary. Everything was very good and the price is a very good competitive one. For example, I ordered a paste of lentils with bread and a vegetarian cheese burger, and I paid around 10€. The burger was very good because they didn’t try to replicate a meat one, it still tasted very good. Would definitely recommend, especially if you are vegetarian. The decor was very nice too, simple but warm.

Good fresh food at a good price

Jan 2024 • solo

Very good Vegan/Veggie food at good price. Food is fresh and tasty. Staff are very helpful. The place is clean and nicely furbished. I just wish they offered a paper menu as I don't use a smartphone and the menu was via a QR code. It also has the most chilled cat you are ever likely to meet. Highly recommended.

Excelent experience

Apr 2021 • couples

Very nice place that I will remember if I will return to Iași. Nice waiters, and here you should order so called in România “borș”. One of the best I ever ate.

Great place for vegans/ vegetarians

Oct 2020 • friends

A wonderful place to visit with your friends. Their terrace is fantastic and the restaurant is part of and old nice small very good maintained house. Prices are very affordable and food is clean as possible. They really care about environment. They make sure all their products come from verified sources and slavery is not used at the origin seller. I recommend you their vegan burger with oven cooked potatoes.

Dedicated Restaurant for Vegans and Vegetarians

Dec 2019 • none

So after having spent quite some time in Iasi, this seems to be the only restaurand that is dedicated to vegeterianism and veganism - and it is amazing. You great sense of familiarity, the atmosphere is cozy and inviting. They say they get all their ingredients from local farmers from eco-friendly production, which is what I am looking for in a restaurant. I have had the burger, the sandwiches, the pasta, and the main dishes. I liked all of them and I loved most of them. Sometimes the experience is not perfectly consistent: One time I will get shorter potatoe wedges that seem fried crispy with my burger, another time I will get longer, less fried potatoe wedges with my burger. I personally like that they seemed to be different kinds or even just different batches of potatoe but some people might be put off by small variances. I highly recommend the main dish "Leisure" (but beware the chili), the burger (if youre looking for a fresh-tasting, unconventional burger) and the vegetable pasta. The local beers and the cocktails also make for nice evenings. You can tell that I am in love with the place, but if you see yourself in my review, I am sure you will be just as much!
